Senior Care

Chiropractic care is especially important for maturing and elderly adults because of the dramatic changes that occur in the spine with increasing age. As we age, spinal discs, joints, ligaments, muscles, and other spinal tissues become weaker, less hydrated, more fibrous, and less able to withstand normal strain. As a result, back pain from spinal degeneration (arthritis) becomes more prominent, soft tissue inflammation occurs, and the body is more vulnerable to injury.

As the time to heal from injuries increases as we age, minimizing risk and optimizing overall health and wellness becomes even more important.

Chiropractic procedures take into consideration the nature of the aging spine and the many abnormalities possibly present to provide an effective, safe, and non-invasive treatment plan. Through the use of gentle adjusting techniques, physiotherapy modalities, and the incorporation of stretching and strengthening exercise programs you can expect to see improvements in many areas such as:

Overall Pain Relief Without Medication

Improved Range of Motion of the Spine and Extremities

Improved Health, Well-Being, and Quality of Life

Improved Immune System Function

Improved Posture

Decreased Joint Degeneration

Decreased Tissue Inflammation

Increased Balance and Coordination

Reduced Risk of Fall Injuries

Our patients report that they feel better, but they also tell us that they function better and enjoy life more when we hear things like this:
